It's hot here. I mean, it gets hot in Squarebanks, but there isn't humidity and I feel like it's just different. 80 in Alaska, is hot, but I can live with it. 80 on the Island? Nope. My drawers are a mess due to the fact that every time I go to get dressed, everything is too hot and I fling it off myself and into the drawer in a frustrated tantrum. To make it worse, there is no air conditioning in my dorm. Normally, this wouldn't be a problem, but considering the third floor is equivalent to a stuffy old closet on the fourth level of hell, my little fan is not enough to make this room feel the least bit normal.
This should be a disability-- I'm not equipped to handle this heat. The only things I can wear are shorts and light tops. I have limited shorts and my tops all feel too hot. Plus, I'm sweating all the time, so that makes it difficult to feel comfortable in clothes. SBU: Can we please be a nudist colony campus? It may make the heat tolerable.
I looked at the monthly forecast- it stays this hot all the way through September!!! I thought all months that end in -ber were supposed to be cold! When is fall? I really can't wait for that to come. Either I'm going to spend a lot washing and rewashing my only suitable clothes or I'm going to need to invest in a few more summer pieces. And I mean SUMMER, New York. Not these long pants and jackets I see many wearing. It's far too hot for pants.
Till this Alaskan becomes acclimated to the hot Long Island whatever this extremely long season is called, it's no pants.
Love the sunburned, sweating Alaskan on the Island.
Glad to hear you are keeping your cool. You have an Indian Summer to look forward to and something I greatly miss. You'll make it until then no doubt. u
ReplyDeleteIt will come about mid September. October is my favourite month cause it is absolutely gorgeous.
